90s Fashion


Recently The New York Times had a to-do about how girls are starting to dress more nineties, specifically like Elaine Benes from Seinfeld. Now, we all know that Elaine is the original head bitch in charge, but her sense of style is not quite appropriate for my body type. While I can't get behind chunky black Docs with white socks, I can and do absolutely endorse bringing Clueless-esque wardrobes back in. These girls are the bomb. Minis, thigh high stockings, layered vest and shirt combos? Sign me up! Plus, what's all the fuss about Mad Men era women never dressing down? So what? Look at what these goddesses wore in gym class!

Ronnybrook Coffee Milkshake


I follow Kathy YL Chan's blog, A Passion for Food, religiously. When I saw her picture and description of a coffee milkshake from Ronnybrook Milk Bar, it went to the top of my treat list. Today after meandering around I found myself at the previously disappointing Chelsea Market locale (let's just say you shouldn't go there for a satisfying lunch meal). A generous heap of coffee icecream and a quick whurrrr in the blender and voila, one of the most delicious frozen confections I've ever had! It's very rich, I could only handle half, so be sure to go with someone who likes the taste of pure joy when you order yours!

Balthazar Whole Wheat Croissant


I wanted a plain, normal, WHITE FLOUR croissant but they were sold out! Alas I had to make due with their whole wheat, which while lacking in refined carbohydrates, was bountiful in deliciousness. A great afternoon pick me up, especially paired with an iced coffee and Soho people watching on the Balthazar benches.

Batman Part 2


Look! Happy birthday to me! If you think I didn't watch it, WITH Tim Burton's commentary the second I received it, well... you don't know me at all.

Champers


I thought the lyrics were "Cause I'm out at the club and I'm sippin' that Veuve and you're not gonna reach my telephone!" I switched bub to Veuve because it seems classier, and it's all I drink when I drink champagne. Veuve Clicquot... and Mums. A whole bunch of Mums. It was my birthday this past week so I had my fair share of champers. I love celebrating!
